SECO 5HP DC Motor Control

This is a SECO Electronics Challenger model 8800-NO SCR 5hp-dc motor speed control that I bought at auction several years ago.  I was going to use it on a shaper but never got around to it, and now it's time to get rid of stuff.

When I bought it I was told that it was a new control, there are no scratches around the knockouts but no user manual either so I have never tried to hook it up.  A user manual can be purchased for it if that is important (around $25.).  The cardboard box is battered but the control is ok.

I am told this is worth over $500 on the surplus market, that's more than I paid for it if I remember right, but that was a long time ago.    $100.00 delivered anywhere in the continental US, and I'll warrant that it works, and you'll be happy with it, or I'll buy it back for $80.00 when I get it back in the same condition it left in.  You can also make an offer.
